Tooth replacement in an hour offers qualified patients a streamlined way to replace a missing, damaged or failing tooth with a dental implant and temporary restoration during a single visit. At Maitland Square Dentistry, Dr. David Hazan provides tooth replacement in an hour in Maitland, Florida, for patients who want to restore their smile quickly while planning for long-term function and oral health.
When clinical conditions allow, this approach can combine tooth removal, implant placement and placement of a temporary tooth during the same appointment. The temporary restoration helps maintain your appearance and basic function while the implant heals and integrates with the jawbone.
Dr. Hazan has approximately 25 years of experience with dental implant placement and restoration. He has placed more than 3,000 dental implants and completed more than 5,000 implant restorations throughout his career.
What Is Tooth Replacement in an Hour?
Tooth replacement in an hour is an immediate implant treatment approach designed to shorten the time between losing a tooth and receiving a temporary replacement.
In an appropriate case, a damaged or non-restorable tooth can be removed, a dental implant can be placed into the jawbone and a temporary restoration can be attached during the same treatment visit.
The implant still requires time to heal and integrate with the surrounding bone. After the healing period, the temporary tooth is replaced with a custom final restoration.
This treatment is not appropriate for every patient, so a detailed evaluation is necessary before immediate implant placement can be recommended.
Benefits of Tooth Replacement in an Hour
For qualified patients, tooth replacement in an hour may offer several advantages:
- Replacement of a missing or failing tooth during one treatment visit
- A temporary tooth placed soon after implant placement
- Less time spent without a visible tooth
- Coordinated tooth removal and implant placement when appropriate
- Digitally planned implant treatment
- A streamlined path toward a final implant restoration
Dr. Hazan will evaluate your individual needs to determine whether immediate implant placement is a predictable option for your situation.

The Tooth Replacement in an Hour Process
Treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation with our dentist. During this visit, Dr. Hazan will evaluate your tooth, gums, bone structure and overall oral health to determine whether immediate implant placement may be appropriate.
Advanced digital scanning and imaging may be used to evaluate the treatment area and plan the position of the implant and restoration.
If the existing tooth needs to be removed, Dr. Hazan may perform the extraction and place the dental implant during the same appointment when clinical conditions allow.
A temporary restoration can then be placed to help restore the appearance of the missing tooth while the implant heals. After the implant has integrated with the jawbone, the temporary restoration is replaced with a custom final crown.
Who Is a Candidate for Immediate Tooth Replacement?
Not every patient or tooth is suitable for immediate implant placement. Candidacy depends on several clinical factors, including:
- The condition of the tooth being replaced
- The amount and quality of available bone
- The health of the surrounding gums and tissues
- The location of the tooth
- The stability of the implant after placement
- Your bite and functional needs
- Your overall oral and medical health
A thorough examination allows Dr. Hazan to determine whether tooth replacement in an hour or a more traditional implant timeline may provide the better treatment approach.
Replacing a Failing Tooth With a Dental Implant
A severely fractured, decayed, infected or otherwise non-restorable tooth may sometimes need to be removed before it can be replaced.
Dr. Hazan has performed more than 30,000 tooth extractions throughout his career in addition to his extensive implant experience. This allows him to evaluate tooth removal and replacement as parts of one coordinated treatment plan.
When immediate implant placement is appropriate, combining these stages may reduce the amount of time between extraction and receiving a temporary replacement tooth.
Advanced Technology for Immediate Implant Treatment
Careful treatment planning is especially important when an implant and temporary restoration are being placed during the same visit.
At Maitland Square Dentistry, we use advanced dental technology, including CBCT and three-dimensional imaging, TRIOS digital scanning and digitally guided implant surgery when appropriate.
These technologies help Dr. Hazan evaluate bone structure, surrounding anatomy and the proposed implant position before treatment. The specific technology used will depend on your individual case.
Temporary vs. Final Implant Restorations
The tooth placed during immediate implant treatment is typically a temporary restoration rather than the final crown.
The temporary tooth is designed to maintain appearance and provide appropriate function while the implant integrates with the jawbone. During this healing period, you may receive specific instructions about eating and caring for the area.
After healing is complete, a custom final dental crown is created to complete the restoration.
Dr. Hazan will explain the expected timeline and what you can expect from both the temporary and final teeth before treatment begins.
Personalized Implant Care
Dr. Hazan frequently treats patients with complex dental needs, including those seeking second opinions or solutions for damaged teeth and failed previous dental work.
Our approach is centered on careful treatment planning, clear communication and personalized care. We will explain whether immediate tooth replacement is appropriate, discuss alternative treatment options when necessary and help you understand each stage of the process.
Our goal is to help you make an informed treatment decision without pressure.

Tooth Replacement in an Hour FAQs
What is tooth replacement in an hour?
Tooth replacement in an hour is an immediate dental implant approach that may allow a qualifying patient to receive an implant and temporary restoration during the same treatment visit.
Can a tooth be removed and replaced with an implant the same day?
In some cases, yes. If your oral health, bone structure and other clinical conditions are suitable, a tooth may be removed and a dental implant placed during the same appointment. Dr. Hazan will determine whether immediate placement is appropriate after evaluating the area.
Do I receive my final tooth in one hour?
Typically, the restoration placed during the initial visit is temporary. The implant needs time to heal and integrate with the jawbone before a custom final crown is completed.
Who is a candidate for tooth replacement in an hour?
Candidacy depends on factors such as available bone, gum health, the condition and location of the tooth, implant stability and your overall health. A comprehensive evaluation is necessary to determine whether immediate treatment is appropriate.
What if I have a badly damaged or broken tooth?
A severely damaged or non-restorable tooth may sometimes be removed and replaced with an implant during the same visit. Whether this is possible depends on the condition of the tooth, bone and surrounding tissues.
How long does a dental implant take to heal?
Healing time varies from patient to patient and depends on factors such as the implant location, bone condition and individual healing response. Dr. Hazan will monitor your progress and determine when the implant is ready for its final restoration.

The temporary restoration is designed to provide appearance and appropriate function during healing, but you may need to follow specific eating and care instructions to avoid placing excessive pressure on the implant.
